.DISCUSSION...Moisture in place today has resulted in widespread
wetting rain across some locations, as well as much cooler
temperatures. Frequent lightning and gusty winds will also be
possible today. Temperatures warm a few degrees tomorrow, with
lingering moisture allowing for afternoon showers and storms to
form over the higher terrain. Much warmer and drier conditions
return for Saturday into early next week. Light winds will keep
critical fire weather conditions limited through this period.
...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
